I believe the plus of social media is that those who never had a voice suddenly have one. No one can see if you are an extrovert or introvert and victims of bullies can be someone, bullies became internet bullies and keyboard heroes
The nasty phone calls stopped but instead we have internet stalkers.
Literally everything became easier except for finding a real friend, that struggle remained the same, which I find sad. If it comes to social skills, this decreased which is sad.

As long as people work they try to find an easy job or do something they really like. Social media is an option to be the journalist, photographer, be in the picture, promote yourself, unlike in the old days.
It's true that if a platform is mainly used by poor people and is promoted as the goose with the golden eggs, it doesn't attract investors but only more who want to make a quick income,

Should everyone give up on writing if downvoted?
If you like to write, why give up or better give in to a bully? Since not scammers and farmers are always downvoted, also those who fight those people. If it comes to being downvoted you should know that if the reputation is higher than the one who downvotes you, your reputation can't go down, all the downvoted can do is take your upvotes away .

If writing makes happy, why let someone filled with envy make you stop?
Who know this is even a sign that not everyone cares about the income, Steemit is addictive and it's good to meet and talk with others. It's also proof that there is no fair play and you need luck to receive an upvote.

A happy day and welcome to CCC.
